Wisdom went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Sunday's win over the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

It was a game of highs and lows for Wisdom, as the 30-year-old struck out four times, but he also connected for his 27th home run of the season with two runners on in the eighth inning. In doing so, Wisdom set a new team rookie home run record, surpassing the 26 long balls hit by Kris Bryant back in 2015. Considering Wisdom came into the year with four career home runs in 43 games at the MLB level, the power surge has been quite the pleasant surprise.

Wisdom went 2-for-4 with a double and a two-run home run in Tuesday's win over the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Wisdom hadn't gone deep yet this month but snapped that streak Tuesday with his 26th home run of the season. In doing so, the 30-year-old tied Kris Bryant's team rookie record set in 2015. Wisdom isn't your typical rookie after mostly toiling in the minors the past nine years, but he's made the most of his opportunity with the Cubs. He should continue to see regular playing time and has a shot to reach the 30-homer plateau, which seemed unthinkable before the season.

Wisdom will sit Sunday against San Francisco.

EDGE Analysis

Wisdom has fallen into a slump recently, going 2-for-28 at the plate over his last eight games. Matt Duffy will take over at third base.

Wisdom has gone deep nine times in his past 16 contests and is up to 25 homers in 251 at-bats overall this season. He needs one more long ball to tie Kris Bryant's team rookie record set in 2015.

EDGE Analysis

On his 30th birthday, the third baseman rewarded himself with a pair of homers. Wisdom has gone yard five times in his last seven games. This is the second noticeable power binge for the third baseman, who is up to 23 long balls, 48 RBI, 44 runs scored and three stolen bases through 270 plate appearances. He's added a solid .255/.319/.563 slash line in a surprising breakout season.

EDGE Analysis

Wisdom struck out four times overall in the twin bill, but his three-run shot in the fifth inning of Game 1 provided the margin of victory for the Cubs. The 29-year-old is in the midst of a breakout campaign, slashing .251/.313/.539 with 21 homers and 44 RBI over 79 games. His massive 39.2 percent strikeout rate is certainly problematic, but Wisdom has at least provided a jolt of power for a team that parted ways with three of its biggest bats in separate trades.

EDGE Analysis

Wisdom isn't starting Wednesday against the Reds.

EDGE Analysis

Wisdom went just 1-for-8 with five strikeouts across the last two games, and he'll get a breather for the series finale. Matt Duffy will take over at the hot corner and bat fourth.

Wisdom is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Wisdom will take a seat for the series finale after he started each of the past three games at a different position (first base, third base and left field). Expect him to rotate among all three spots over the final month and a half of the season, though he should retain a near-everyday role while he continues to supply power. Wisdom owns an .870 OPS over 230 plate appearances on the campaign.
